Scanning animals and people is our expertise, with @4DDynamics scanners it is FAST (0.02 sec) and we have motion compensation algorithms for heartbeats and breathing! Great work from @Sampleandhold

Otherwise it’s just a small and quite banal statue of a horse. I’m pretty sure real artists have been sculpting those by hand from actual solid marble for a few centuries now.

With that amount, they could have preserved a number of genuine marble horse sculptures from ancient Rome/Greece, put up a temporary tent on the square to display them for the public and still have a few millions left for tours in a number of cities.

This is more installation art than traditional/original sculpture. Why spend so much money?
